Where garden flowers around me smiled.

Sweet laughing Bouncing Betsey.

A filter name by far they think;
But deep into my heart will sink
No name like Bouncing Betsey.

I've wandered far, but nowhere found
Aye though I've looked for miles around
The fragrant Bouncing Betsey.

THE IEEWARD ISL LES.
A Talk with an Influential Citizen of Beau
tiful ST. Christopher.

tiful St. Christopher.
Mr.. James Carney, a gentleman who
has been living for over thirty years
in the West Indies, gave a reporter
some very interesting information
about those islands. more especially,
however, about his home, the St.
Christopher Island. one of the Leeward
group. Said Mr.. Carney:
'-Our island is one of the most beau
tiful of the whole group. There are
about twenty thousand people living
on it, of whom. however. only one
thousand are white inhabitants. It is
not very large. as you drive around it
in about three hours. The population
consists largely of creoles and negroes.
The latter do the principal work of the
island. Their wages amount to about
twenty-five cents a day, but as their
necessities of life are but very limited.
they live very contentedly and happy.
THE cline is one of perpetual sum-
mer, and it never varies more than
five degrees all the year round. The
scenery on the island is very pictur-
esque, and some of it is truly romantic.
The interior is slightly mountainous.
the highest elevation being called
Mount Misery, which is about three
thousand feet high. The mountain is
an extinct volcano, inside of which is
a large lake. This lake contains We ~
delicious water, and all the houses on
the island is furnished with it. An
other elevated spot is Brimsto Hill,
which was, until the Crimean war. a
strong fortress; in fact it was called
the Gibraltar of the West Indies. Brim-
stone Hill is composed of limestone,
which is nowhere else found on the
whole island. The fortress was dis
mantled in 1856. The pleasant climate
attracts a number of strangers, es-
pecially Americans, who come there
during the winter. Several of them
have even bought land there, as it is
very cheap A gentleman from Gin

to the same causes and unless the Republican
party is prepared to adopt compulsory suffrage.
It will find its efforts to remove the present
ground of complaint as fruitless as its orig
inal attempt to secure permanent ascendency
in the South by enfranchising the negro.
That there are individual and isolated cases
of unlawful interference, by both races, with the
right of suffrage in the South, is doubtless true,
but the statement is true OF other pats CT the
country as well; and, in fact, in half the accus-
ations made by the public press are well found
ed. the voter is much less free from coercive and
corrupting influences in the great centers OF
population and business in the North than he
is anywhere south OF the Potomac and Ohio.
The Democratic party is as competent and as
willing to punish these crimes against the
purity and independence Of the ballot as the
Republican party Is, Notwithstanding the lat
ter's boast of superiority in morality and patri-
otism The rigkt of the negro to vote is Sc
cured by a constitutional provision which FRO
hfotts discrimination against him on account OF
his race or color, and in every Democratic
State the free exercise OF this right Is protected
by the same statutes that apply to the white
citizen It can not be asserted, or at least 1t
can not be proved, that these statutes are not
snpartialiy enforced by the courts ard iuries
in Democratic communities, nor can it be
shown that there exists anywhere a purpose to
abrldee the right Of suffrage either by change
of the constitution or repeal of the existing
laws upon the subject
For ten years after the close OF the
war the Republican party had undisputed
control of the Federal Government IN
ALI its departments, and during that
period it not only failed to make necessary re-
forms in the public service or to legtslate for
the promotion of the general welfare, but Il
crinainally neglected the material interests OF
the masses of the people, and, in its anxiety to
win the applause and support of aggregated
capital it laid the foundation for many new
abuses which have since grown to alarming
